The Investigation of HBV Pre-S/S Gene Mutations in Occult HBV Infected Blood Donors with anti-HBs Positive by Yan Guo, Yu Lan, Yuanyuan Jing, Bin Cai, Hanshi Gong, Yixin Zhang, Yong Duan

“…For these high-frequency substitutions in the pre-S/S region, the mutations sN40S and sK122R were found in 27.3% and 45.5% of anti-HBs (−) OBI strains, respectively. 7 substitutions were uniquely found in OBIC strains and 9 substitutions were commonly detected in OBIB and OBIC strains. Conclusions. These results suggested that the mutations might occur randomly and were not selected by antibody pressure.…”
